Booty Call!
I just need to yack for a quick minute before I get to photos (which you are probably looking at anyways). I hope to blog this (when I can actually find time to hunt) but there is a sweet little hunt called The Starry Night Hunt at the Lucid sim. It is only for one week and started on Friday so you might want to go there before you forget. Lots of the free Grand Opening gifts are also still available. Several independent creators have made special items for the hunt that are either 0 or 1 Linden. This sexy shape below is one of the hunt items and is at (census) for only 1 L.
Let's get to the clothes and stuff. Nice latex? I think so!

When you need to unleash your inner thong-wearing rock star!

Beauty: Korea's Purederm Products at Watsons
Incidentally, all the products I got were from Purederm just because their stuff looks Korean and so easy to use but are effective as well. Is this the best-kept beauty secret of Koreans? Hmmm...

For any pair of hands and fingers who've been typing/mousing all day (or harvesting in Farmville for some people) this Deep Moisture Hand Mask is for you. One pack of this contains two masks for your left and right hand. Just wear the masks on your hands, wear vinyl gloves (the type doctors use, I get mine from Watsons), then remove everything after 30 minutes.
The orange circles you see are eye masks and I've been using them since college. You pop them on the fridge and just peel two circles from the bunch, put on your eyes, relax, then throw the used pads away. Eyeloveit.
Purederm's facial masks are one of my favorite things, I like their whitening pearl masks but I wanted to try this for a change.

Lavander Collagen Mask which provides intensive hydration while the Lavender is a soothing antiseptic (perfect for problematic skin like mine). Unlike other masks, Purederm's always use natural pulp sheet which adheres to the face better. The cut outs are too cool!

I still have BB Cream phobia (because I broke out after trying 2 brands of BB creams) yet I thought I might try Purederm's. Will let you know how it goes when I've used it :)
So relaxing just looking at these beauty products, you can actually try them. Just visit your nearest Watsons store and have fun picking the right Purederm product for you.
Ilaya Profile Picks Gift
Also, Over The Rainbow has some really nice eyes available for free as well as some interesting "Avatar" avatars. Very nice quality eyes with no iris discoloration.

Thank you, Skyler John of Mystic Sky and Foxx Demonia of FD Poses, for your generosity!
I'm Dying for Some Candy
The orange skin is called "Burn Victim" and is beautifully detailed. Hair in the top 2 pictures is Demon from Darker Side, which I picked up for 1 L about a month ago. I don't know if it is still 1 L.
I love "Death Becomes". I found it in 3 different skin tones.
Also worn:
Hair: The Stringer Mausoleum: Quill - picked up at Schismphrenic's opening - worth a look to see if it is still there
Shirt: Simone!: part of the new release Wench Dress and Vest: not free - a quick aside about Simone! Simone has 4 different groups, including a subscriber group, that have a special shopping area. Each group has certain clothing that is available for steeply discounted prices (never more than 100 L) for people who have been a member of the group for over 30 days. I've heard more and more complaints about people joining groups, including subscribers, to get the gift and then turning around and leaving the group. This option saves the best deals for loyal customers.
Pants: Digit Darkes: Laced Leather Pants: not free
Who says you only find seeds in pumpkins? There is also a very special Dr. Manhattan skin that I am showing on my alt, Reid. Look for the Doc Hollywood eyes in a separate package.

Stockings/Gloves: Rotten Toe: Long Rotten: not free
Hair: Deviant Kitties: Koneko: not free (sale is almost over -- hurry!)

Jewelry: Balderdash: Strange as Angels: 1 L (part of the Oubiette Pieces of You Hunt - 88 L to join hunting group for fabo gifts from Evie's Closet, Balderdash, Frippery and Winx Home and Garden)
Fairy Fantasy
I really was inspired by these outfits to do an on-the-location shoot, so that's what I did today!
elDee is one of 2 really girly places I'll actually drop cash on. There is always a bunch of bright fun, colours and patterns. Plus a real fsahionista, not matter what her chosen lifestyle in sl, can make ANYTHING work. As you see here. I went with the theme of the dress, and built up the outfit from there. I just happened to have these skins passed on to me by the lovely Daarc, owner of ElfPyre. These skins will be out soon, and though not free, I'll keep you informed anyways!
The wings I happened to score for half off at Fancy Fairy. There are a wack of deals there right now, so run kiddies! There are some free things too, tho I don't show them here.
I couldn't pick between these 2 pics, so I'm posting them both!

I felt it went with the skin I got from Aura, designer of Tacky Star. I sort of look like a damaged court girl. The eyes are part of the "Under 30 days old" pack she has in the store. Know anyone new, who need some mysterious eyes? drag them there for a visit!
Skin-Tacky Star-Whitewash Skin-L$200
Eyes-Tacky Star-Simplicity in blue-For avi's under 30 days(you get 9 different coloured eyes!)
Glasz DeCuir sent me a folder way back in the beginning of april. It was of a pink outfit. I said I'd get to it, then to my horror I opened it to discover it was pink! Was it meant for Suri? Well I sadly didn't get to it. *Shudders* Well Glasz sent me a new item, to redeem my honour as a FreeStylist. This purple outfit so goes with my new found love of purple! I know purple is in the same family as pink blablablab. WHATEVER! You don't get along with your whole family do you?
The wings I found on XStreet. There was a set for L$3 and then I found a whole fatpack of them for L$45, that's like L$6 per wing, not bad, and they are lovely.
Dress--Start Wearing Purple Dress-L$0
Wings-Hare Couture-Pretteh Faerie Wings-You can either get the aqua ones for L$3 or a whole set of 8 for L$45!
Acid & Mala happens to have been a fav store of mine for a very long time. I picked up this little kitty, and he matched so perfect!
Kitty-Acid and Mala-Minino-Halloween Edition-L$25(Store has a 25-75% off sale right now!)
Fairies done need footwear, but it doesn't hurt to have some either.

So ended my adventure this day, prancing about in my wings. But wait! There are more eyes! Can a fairy be an eye whore? Cause I sure am!

Under the Sea

Well today I'm going to show you what I found on my search!
Ruina Kessel of House of Ruin let my use her new store build for these pics. The new store isn't open yet(neener neener), but in the meantime you can go and join her subscribo and grab some great freebies.
What does she have there, at this magical undersea store? EYES! Some people collect skins, some shoes, some just anything in a certain colour. Me, I collect eyes. I don't even want to tell you how much I have spent on eyes. So the above pic, you get those. But not just those, the whole darn set! and there are 2 other sets too.




LOVE
This Staff
Makes me want to make earrings to match(scribbles on project list).

I loved the sparkliness of this tail. I normally don't go for that sort of stuff, but I'm a mercritter now, so sparkles are a must.
The eyes look like they are from the depths of the deepest hole at the bottom of the ocean. Perfect for getting your mer on.
(The Helena Version of the Jaws theme songs)

These I got when I first found Grendel's. I had to purchase them. But they are now all only L$1. So you lucky people get them for almost nothing.
They have a really unique ao. Sort of slithery.
They come with everything, skin, eyes, shape, ao plus fishy bits. I'm wearing my own shape tho.

This was suppose to be red. NOT PINK! or salmon, whatever. It's so not red. But there are lost of colours and guy versions too. Same as the shark, there is one for the dudes.

Lucky Ducky

It's like my favvy sl colour. I really don't get to wear it in rl, never find the right shade. Plus in here I get to be green. Literally! So Fricka was in the shop buying up a wack of hair, and I was all like oh ya, I hadn't been to her shop in a bit. So I dragged one of my store models, Ruina Kessel(Also owner of House of Ruin) over to {Frick}. There we found some new goodies. This Green goddess of a skin was down stairs, as well as the lucky chair! And low and behold my letter came up! I'm always super excited when that happens, cause honestly we designers like never get out. We are hermits. We need showers most days, at least 2 dunkings.
Nyla Cheeky of House of Nyla gave me an outfit the other day. It so went with the {Frick} skin, I just had to show you.
This made me go to the store, see if she had any goodies. There is one, for both men and women. I remembered I mentioned Ducks in my first post, so I laughed when I found these duck feet looking for a slurl.



I saw these eyes in the Free*Style Flickr group and was like OOOOOOO. MINE! The only thing that sucks is if your hunting on your own. That's cause it's not a regular hunt. It's a lucky letter hunt, so bring peeps to get the items rolling.
Lastly for the love of all things Duh! That's the store name I swear! Renee is awesome. We have seen shoe kits go out there, and people do nothing with them. They just make them up and slap them out. Well Renee, she actually adds things, and like makes different colours, ooo and here is a new concept, she like places different types of textures on them. OMG! Like I can feel the air going to my head. So ya head on over to Duh! you'll find something, and spend next to nothing, she gives awesome gifts, has a lucky chair, does hunts. Shoe lovers dream designer. So off with you now, hump her leg a bit!

Well a fellow Canadian(I AM CANADIAN-one of our beer slogans) blogged about Anti Bully Day, which is a day in Canada where schools had started a program to show support on bringing down "bully" behavior.
It's sort of funny that this one blog post could start a war of sorts, and the soldiers being a battalion of Pink clad SL avi's. So I don the horrid colour to do my part. We all say things that aren't so nice some days, things that could be taken wrong, if you don't know the person well enough. Have some taste, don't start wars on a feed, plurk, flickr, twitter, blablabla, cause more often then not, it comes back at you like tenfold.
I also happen to believe only REAL men can pull off pink, it shouldn't matter what their preference of a partner is.
So be kind. Rewind.






Well I hope you all enjoyed my self induced torture, it might be hard not to get bullied now though, all you pink lovers probably want to chop off my head. If only to get the hair!
